Floral feeling

Dresses that feature flowers and floral patterns are often our spring and summer staple. With this article, picking some floral patterns I want to show you how they bring out your confident femininity. Floral print dresses styled the right way and outerwear are easily worn and could make the look of gloom.

While a floral dress is great in theory, in fact it is often a challenge to pull off, so choosing the right floral patterns is important to fit your body and style.

Consider that larger flowers are more flattering to smaller body types – you should not go for oversized floral patterns if you have a shapely one because those may add a few kilos to your silhouette. If your body type is slim to average, try combining larger with smaller floral patterns.

Also, consider the background color of your floral dress – a bright background fits perfectly on a thinner body, while choosing a darker one will give you a more tailored and tapered look and the illusion of being slimmer. 

At the end a floral concept must fit to your mood, style and complete your femininity, of course in a fashionway.

How about an evening walk

When was the last time you went out for an evening stroll? Hard to recollect? You are not the only one! Nowadays, not a lot of people remember the importance of a simple exercise like walking. People have become lazy and it is no wonder as the daily life became so dynamic and we have less and less time to enjoy the little things of life like simple walking.

I really enjoy night walks. The city by night looks completely different than in daylight. The most representative buildings and tourist attractions are highlighted while the rest is hidden in the shadow… and maybe that’s the most exciting thing about exploring the city after the sun goes down.

And what would be the perfect outfit for an evening walk – I would say almost everything which is comfortable. For example – shoes, sneakers type but in silver to have some sparkle in the night, leggings dark like the night itself, thin pullover and coat – to make the sprint evening soft and warm. No matter the degrees outside and for sure not the lease important is a little smile and some good mood – all of that, of course, in a fashion way.

Feeling lazy and casual today

There are some days when you wake up and you’re just like „nope, not today“, especially when it rains and the mood goes down. You just want to go outside, casual and lazy and don’t think about your outfit too much.

My „nope“ today means „no“ to the bad mood. There is something good in every day and every weather. Let‘s smile, wear funny casual clothes ans enjoy the spring time with all it’s beauty. And what does spring beauty mean – blooming flowers, wonderful inspiring smells, freshness everywhere even from the falling rain.

For me, one of the symbols of spring is the lilac bush, adding abundant color to the landscape and scent the air with fragrance. It makes me also especially very happy because violet with all its nuances, bright or dark, is one of trending spring colors. It can be easily combined with neutral ones like grey, white and beige, but meanwhile a combination with gold ot metallic is also perfect. In addition a well combined natural mix between green and violet also deserves a compliment and look elegant in a fashion way.

Spring comes with flower colors

Spring is the season of new coming, new fresh blooming flowers and new colors. Nature has its great beauty, combining all colors in perfect harmony in line with the season, and so should it be in fashion too. It’s hard to choose from the wide variety of the trend palette, but my favorites now are pink, violet, purple like the violets, pansies and crocuses flowers. I like the combination of same colored jacket and tunic together and with some frayed Chanel-type accessories bag and sneakers like the one I am wearing – they make the outfit fancy in fashion way.

Cool mood with silver shine

For me, wearing shiny silver items has always been a little too much. But with this blog post I want to show you a beautiful and natural looking silver blouse outfit that makes me to re-consider. It seems that I might have been missing out on some fun. Wearing shiny silver, something cool and fun now and then can make my casual look special and meanwhile so street style and simple.

As the silver is very fashionable at the moment I choose a silver shirt combined with cool jeans to make my outfit both casual and a “killer”. In addition I smartened it up with a cardigan proper for the season and some comfortable low top sneakers. It was not easy for me to take the challenge of the shiny silvery approach, but you should also try it and you will also feel that it can make your look and feel outstanding, in a fashionway.

Spring gives me wings

After a long winter, the days are getting warmer and the sun is staying out longer. I love the change of seasons. Every new season has something beautiful to offer. So is with the fashion – new trends and new colors are waiting for us. And as the fashion spring/summer palette is full with shades of sun colors, I find them gathered in this wonderful butterfly tunic. The outfit is complemented with those chic pink sunglasses, which also have the form of a butterfly and follow the current pink trend.

When winter gives way to spring, for me this is the favourite change of seasons, as it reminds me it’s time to start getting ready for the coming summer – I am so excited preparing my summer wardrobe… what about you?

Blogger’s life

People often ask me what is a real blogger’s life like actually and what am I doing all the time. As a blogger I constantly have a feeling I’m doing a thousand different things, 24/7. Those include for example writing articles and concepts, doing market research, taking care of my social networks, discussing outfits, do planning, organising and making my photo shoots, organising my travels, as well as many other things. Yes, the work and the responsibilities are a lot, but I am happy with this, as it also continuously brings me experience and knowledge, as well as many new friends and good contacts. And when you do something with your heart, like I do, things always work out at the end.

Reaching the conclusion that I have to do what makes me happy at my work, fulfils me not only professionally, but also personally – because gaining positive energy from what I do, as well as investing it back, I am able to pass it on to the people around me. I like how i feel after a long day of work – I might be exhausted, but at the same time happy that I have accomplished something. Every new project, each new thing, even if it is just a small step forward, for me is like a big leap.

To round it up: to achieve something good efforts are needed and such efforts require proper attitude – mine is always to give my best for what i love to do.

Making a selfie

I always found it difficult to make a decent selfie – even though it looks very easy and most bloggers do it very well.

Getting a great shot of your outfit can be harder than it looks, as it‘s difficult to fit the whole body unless it‘s mirror selfie. It is also hard to avoid the surroundings and the position holding the phone sometimes ruins the whole picture. One has to learn the tricks, tips and the tools available for making a good shot.

That said, I like it and taking selfies is fun – it’s also a quick and easy way to share something from myself. Today, I am wearing one of my favorite „Selfie“ T-shirt with a cool print, Jeans and rough shoes in which I‘m in love and of course trying to make some selfies. At the end, the professional camera, as you can see, is always the best way for a good shot.

Carnival in Lanaken and Valkenburg

I want to share with you a great experience I had in the last days in Holland and Belgium – the Carnival. In Holland, Carnival is a holiday mainly celebrated in the south of the country in the the provinces Limburg and Noord-Brabant. The inhabitants take the Carnival celebrations very seriously – they prepare a lot and make it very well organised – they dance, sing and drink, wearing colorful outfits.

Every year the Carnival has its Prince – the Prince of Carnival, who for three days, together with his subjects celebrates the temporary establishment of their Kingdom of Fools. Merrymakers make their way from pub to pub and greet the Prince Carnival with three cheers of “Alaaf”.

In Belgium the festival goes in a very similar manner like in the Netherlands – I had the chance to enjoy the fun at a local street party in Lanaken. Every year people all over France and Belgium celebrate Carnival by dressing up in vibrant costumes, striking hats and masks in a tradition that goes back centuries.

The festival has its origins in the Christian custom of giving up something for Lent. Also known as Mardi Gras, the annual event is staged to mark the beginning of a 40-day period of abstinence. And although the most famous parades are the ones staged in New Orleans and Rio de Janeiro, the people of Belgium are also dab hands at creating a spectacle for the yearly celebration.

Black is the new white

Bright or dark, black or white – quite simply both.

There are always pretty good ideas how to match black and white, but the question that always stays there is how much exactly black and how much white. My answer to this would be – as much as I feel like it at the time – in such a way that you can’t say if one is more than the other.

This outfit was provoked by this wonderful coat, which I fell in love with. But instead of going for brighter colors for the rest, so the coat can pop out, I decided to dress me all black with the single exception of the white pullover. Black does not detract brightness, it also does not oppress nor gives any negative impression, on the contrary – it can give an outfit character in an original way, namely in a fashion way.
